A wheel slows from 500 rad/s to rest in 80.0 seconds due to a frictional force that is applied to the outer rim of the wheel. Treat the wheel as a solid disk with radius R = 12.0 cm and mass M = 350 grams. What is the magnitude of the frictional force that causes the wheel to slow to a stop?

Solutions

Expert Solution

Given:

Initial angular velocity of the wheel,

Final angular velocity of the wheel,

Time,

Radius of the wheel,

Mass of the wheel,

-----------

Moment of inertia of a solid disk,

Torque = Force *Distance from the axis of rotation

==============================

First, find the angular deceleration of the wheel

Use formula

==============================

Now consider the wheel

Net Torque = Moment of inertia*Angular acceleration

ANSWER:

===========================
